At CTIA (News - Alert) Enterprise & Applications 2012, SensorLogic and ClearConnex announced a partnership that will simplify the process of building and managing M2M applications that use a wide range of popular wireless modems. SensorLogic (News - Alert) is a provider of cloud-based platform technology for M2M application enablement. ClearConnex is an engineering services firm that focuses on projects involving wireless device platforms.

As a first step, these companies have integrated the portable ClearComm wireless device agent into the SensorLogic Service Delivery Platform. The integration allows customers to leverage the ClearComm platform, which supports wireless modems and modules from firms such as Sierra Wireless (News - Alert), Maestro Wireless, and XACT. When used in combination, the two platforms make it easier and more cost effective for customers to build M2M applications and services.

“Working with application platform partners like SensorLogic helps us extend the value of our portable agent technology,” said Manuel Zepeda, President of ClearConnex. “Both companies are interested in simplifying M2M solutions, so the integration of our platforms is compelling to developers and integrators.”

“Partnering with ClearConnex is an excellent complement to our open approach to device communication, management and support,” said Paul Henderson, VP of Marketing and Product Management for SensorLogic. “The ClearConnex wireless device agent significantly expands the options that our customers have when choosing modules and modems for their M2M solutions.”

The SensorLogic Service Delivery Platform provides a wide range of application enablement services that allow developers to focus their attention and resources on building the domain-specific aspects of their solutions and not waste resources on the underlying M2M infrastructure elements.

Examples of Platform services include: open device communications and protocol translation, device data storage and management, configurable business rules and complex event processing, location-based services with geospatial triggers, alerts and notifications, secure device group management, data warehousing, and reporting.

The portable ClearComm wireless device agent ensures that developers do not have to learn the specifics of wireless technologies. Instead they can use a common library across popular wireless devices and exploit core capabilities like device and bearer management, tracking, controls, and more.
